When Angels Die
Darkness covers the place we live,
And children ask for reasons why.
When acid rainburns your skin to shreds,
And children die with open eyes.
Disfigured faces, bleeding disease.
Mutilated bodies - sill alive or almost dead.
Time to realize what they've done to us.
It makes no sense to protect yourself.
Disfigured faces, bleeding disease.
Mutilated bodies - sill alive or almost dead.
Chemical holocaust, invisible death.
Destruction as far as you can see.
** ** ** ** die right off.
Breathing deep, killing death winds.
Nuclear fall-out, comes down like snow.
And the radiation begins to kill.
When the whole history of this planet,
Seems to be forgotten.
Suicide Command
Now I'm up,ready to die
** ** ** ** ** **
Gun in my heart, death in my brain
My home is death, is now.
Killing and dying ** ** is **
The old death's gone, die.
My stake is high, the price to die
The one way ticket to Hell.
Hunting, seeking, finding, destroying - die.
Praying, pleading, cannot wait - for death. 2X
solo
Again 2X
solo
There's no return,
"he snakes inside"
I'm racing as fast as I can.
The sun's on my back,
And death's in front.
Sweat on my forehead's - burnin'
The moment is right, to go down and die,
And make a request for my heart.
Waiting for it, deliverance is here.
See you in Hell my friend.
Hunting, seeking, finding, destroying, die.
Praying, pleading, cannot wait for death. 2X
R.I.P.
Now I lay here.
Surrounded by darkness.
And I really don't know,
Is this reality? Or is it just a dream"
Smell of death - morbid smell. What else can it be?
No ** anymore, my lips are blue. Nothing ** ** **
Walls are moving, deep inside. I don't care about death.
The sun's far away. No hope any more. No chance, I can't get out.
Everything I needed before, is unimportant now.
I don't need no prayers now, just give back the light.
I won't cry - not anymore. Nobody can give me help.
Rotten flowers between my hands, remembrance of my life.
Tears are rolling it's time to say goodbye.
Death brings a smile and R.I.P.
Forgotten time, forgotten sense, my mind is paralyzed.
Rats and worms, left as friends. They're eating me away.
Spider webs on my hands, all wrapped up in chains.
I am sure I'll see again. Your days are numbered too.
Coma
Falling down, entering no-where,
Between our world and the realm of death.
I'm a drifter through unknown lands.
Search for an exit out of this place.
The gift of life, so fragile it was.
Squeezed between ** ** and machines.
** ** ** ** and plastic tubes.
Want to talk but I can't.
Want to move but I'm nailed to the ground.
** ** ** ** **
Child of the moon, coma of light.
See myself from above, await for a final decision. X2
Falling down, entering no-where,
Between our world and the realm of death.
I'm a drifter through unknown lands.
Search for an exit out of this place.
So I lay here, going insane.
What was in the past?
No one knows how to get me out.
They just stand around my bed.
Fill me up with all kinds of drugs
But I know there is a way.
Switch off the machine to let me go.
Let me sleep this time for real.
Child of the moon, coma of light.
See myself from above, await for a final decision.
